Weight loss at 22.9 days.
I meant to add earlier, at 22.9 days my weight is (drum roll please)......
: 154
Having started at 182, this means 28
pounds of something is off my body, but what?
Any guesses?... Anyone?... Buhler?
In my best estimate, this weight loss consists of about:
1 pound of muscle or protein type tissue including dead or diseased cells and tissue... to say it another way, the very worst of it.
8
pounds of fat (primary fuel source over the past 21 days or so)
and
19
pounds of water (and... intestinal contents).
Since the 19 pounds of water will be back on my body within about 2 weeks of breaking the fast, i consider my "real" weight to be 173 (154+19) and at 154 i consider myself to be 19 pounds artificially thin today.
I expect the one pound of muscle to be back on my body within a month of breaking. So if i ended the fast today (which i won't) i would probably be at about 174 or 175 a month later.
By the time i am done, we could be looking at about 170 which would probably put me at about 9% body fat, something i am indeed happy with.
